A+ However, when I looked at the photo of TR sitting in the wide open controls area between the upper and lower wings, I debated whether he was "in" the airplane or "on" the airplane.

I wonder if he, too, banned brokkoli...

And according to the article he was the first to sit in "First Class" since he said so. LOL

He was also the first to ride in a submarine. Bully for TR.

Which First Lady was referred to as Lady Presidentress by her peers?

Was that Mary Lincoln?


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - Steve - 04-11-2018

Martha Washington

Sorry Susan and Steve. Those are very logical choices, but not Lady Presidentress.

Eva, your attachment of Ringo and McCarthy (?) has me confused... Do love the shaggy dog, however.

Julia Tyler


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 04-12-2018

My guess was Martha, too. (One of my favorite songs.)

RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - RJNorton - 04-12-2018

Wild guess --> Dolley Madison?


RE: Presidents and First Ladies Trivia - AussieMick - 04-12-2018

I think Steve's got it. Though I believe Julia Tyler was actually called Mrs Presidentress.

(Dolley Madison was called The Queen Mother, Roger)
